Online Banking Account Alerts

You can set up account alerts through online banking that let you know when certain transactions happen, such as, when your balance drops below a specified amount or when a specific check number clears your account. These alerts can tip you off to potential fraudulent transactions or remind you of important account activity. Best of all, you can specify how you receive the alert— as a message inside of online banking, an e-mail or a text message to your phone.

From time to time an issue may arise where you do not receive a timely alert. This can be caused by an uncontrollable technical issue on our end, such as a service provider outage, or an issue on your end, for example, changing your e-mail address or phone number, or an issue with your e-mail account. Additionally, please be aware that alerts expire after a year. While alerts are very useful, please do not rely solely on account alerts as an indicator of your account activity or balance. We recommend you frequently check your account via online banking.
